It’s a toy
you get it to play with it.
I would carefully take it out and make sure not to destroy the canister. I would do this because I really enjoy the canisters, but I also enjoy playing with the sets themselves. I think that playing with it is just more worth it than keeping it around hoping to get $100 off of it 50 years in the future.
Well, I opened my Takanuva which was in mint. So yes.
No I probably wouldn’t.
I got a Cendox V1 mint and sealed last year for christmas, and it is still sealed in the box, and I probably will leave it like that! Although I probably will get another to build.
Depends on the size and/or weather or not I have one on display.
It would all hinge n one very important thing.
Do I, or do I not already have it?
If I do have it: Keep it sealed, resale value and such.
If I do not have it: Tear it open with all the gusto of a wild boar going after its latest meal (jk. (never using that again) In actuality you open it very carefully).
It’s arrived! (Jk , this is my old BIONICLE box. I had a hay day with it. And, no. I do not have a fixed/completed Keetongu. His parts were all used for my MOC’s)
Was this whole topic a troll, or are you going to get a new Keetongu to replace this one?
Oh no! This is my old set. I shall be receiving a new one soon.
Ok, thank you. I thought that you had pulled the proverbial wool over all of our eyes.
I saw this and I just had to show you what happen my old box.
I think it depends on the resale value. If you can get a lot more and more useful parts for the resale price of the new set, sell it. But if you don’t get an amazing price for it, open it.
Basically my thoughts
I don’t play with my BIONICLE sets any more, but I would definitely get the set put together, mint or not. For me, opening a factory sealed box really satisfies my nostalgic urges.
I got Dekar mint in box for $4.49. I opened it. The same goes with just about all my sets.
You lair! You never got it! You never went through with it you imbecile!
No, it was a big tease. >=(
